My friend in Australia is a doctor studying psychiatry and he kept asking me what certain worlds meant and half the time I had no idea what they were or how to explain them lol.

Very random. Here's a wiki list but I remember there were some others too

Anwesenheit

Dermatozoenwahn

Entgleisen

Gedankenlautwerden

Mitgehen

Mitmachen

Pfropfschizophrenie

Schnauzkrampf

Wahneinfall

Verstimmung

vorbeigehen; vorbeireden

Witzelsucht

Würgstimme

Word salad/Wortsalat

Zeitraffer

Zeitlupenwahrnehmung

It's kind of interesting to see the long lasting effect of Germans pioneering the medical field for a very brief time in history.
